If one wishes to truly know if God exists you mush first want to know. An angel could come down from heaven and most would dismiss it as a camera trick or aliens. Definitive proof does not exist that your five senses can grasp, and that goes for anything.

Even if they do exist do they REALLY have our best interests at heart? Sounds to me Just like an other unacountable "Authority". Dont bother Justifying your belief that they do exist (let alone give a damn, because in truth thats what they should be proving to us if they indeed do exist.)
If a God revealed itself constantly... wouldn't that take away your free-will to choose to obey it?

Not only is their no proof that the serpent is the Devil, Genesis 4:7 states humans can rule over sin.

Also you may try to say that how was god created? Well a simple fact is that if a being powerful enough to create everything existed, wouldn't he be able to create himself?
Evil was created by the devil;

If anyone believes in a peaceful or loving god, why would that god give humans free choice and thought to think other ways than what he intended, and damn them to hell for practicing what he gave them. And why does he let tragedies happen?
Original Sin. God gave man free will because he thought they would behave; the example of Adam and Eve gives this where the devil tricks them. I believe god created them imperfect to make sure each human being is different.

Yeah, I wanted to know for years. Nothing, not a single thing, was revealed to me. Why do you get sych revelations and not me? Am I not equally loved by god? Am I not deserving?
